Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Slow Cooker Saucy Pork Chops.
Step 1
Begin by warming olive oil in a spacious skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the oil shimmers, add the pork chops and sear them until they achieve a golden-brown crust, approximately five minutes per side.
Step 3
After browning, transfer the pork chops to a slow cooker, creating a cozy base for your dish.
Step 4
Next, layer sliced onions and vibrant green bell peppers atop the pork, adding a burst of flavor and color.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, combine tomato sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt.
Step 6
Whisk these ingredients together until they meld into a harmonious sauce.
Step 7
Pour this mixture over the pork and vegetables in the slow cooker, gently stirring to ensure everything is well-coated.
Step 8
Cover the slow cooker and set it to the Low setting, allowing the flavors to meld for six to eight hours, or until the pork chops are irresistibly tender.
Step 9
When the cooking time is up, carefully lift the pork chops onto a serving platter, covering them with aluminum foil to retain warmth.
Step 10
If you prefer a thicker sauce, whisk cornstarch into the remaining sauce in the slow cooker until it reaches your desired consistency.
Step 11
Finally, serve the succulent pork chops topped with the rich sauce and sautéed vegetables, creating a comforting meal that’s sure to impress.
Step 12
Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors that will transport you to a cozy kitchen filled with warmth and love.
